Argos is selling a Dimplex 700W Mini Oil Free Portable Radiator for £75, described as 'energy efficient' and designed for compact spaces as the weather turns colder and energy prices rise on October 1.
The full product description on the Argos website reads: "When you need a touch of warmth in a compact space without the weight or wait of traditional oil-filled models, the Dimplex OFRB7N mini oil free radiator provides 0.7kW of gentle heat. It's designed for smaller rooms where a full-size heater would be overkill, think box rooms, studies or cosy corners that need taking the chill off rather than full-blast heating."
It features an adjustable thermostat and is under 45cm tall. Argos describes the heater as perfect for well-insulated spaces or occasional use when you want a little background warmth without dragging out something bigger.

The heater's features include: heat output 0.7kW, 1 heat setting, freestanding, frost protection, safety cut out switch, size H44.6, W29.6, D19.4cm, supplied assembled, manufacturer's 3 year guarantee, and EAN: 5011139046352.

Shopper reviews
One Argos shopper said: "This heater is brilliant, much better than the storage heater in my flat."
A second review read: "Heats up fast, no smell, warms my daughter's box room beautifully. Easy to use. Thermostat adjustable. Good purchase."
A third fan read: "Bought this to keep the chill off small entrance porch. Does the job beautifully. Very pleased."
A fourth shopper added: "This is a great little heater which I use to keep the chill off my bedroom these cold nights. Effective thermostatic control. I sleep a lot better. And it was in my local Sainsbury's just three hours after I put in my order!"
Some shoppers described the heater as better for smaller rooms as opposed to larger ones. One negative review read: "I bought this heater to heat up a small bathroom. It's effective in a small space but not for bigger rooms. It doesn't give off much heat. Disappointed."
